This or Chard
Swiss chard with garlic and ginger.
3tbs garlic minced (one big bulb or two small)
1/4 cup minced fresh ginger
2tbs soy sauce
1tsp secret T.O.N. yellow curry spice blend
3tbs ghee (clarified butter)
1 bunch chard
2 dried chilies
To start mince your garlic, dried chilies, and peel/mince your ginger.
Melt the ghee with the soy sauce in a large skillet.
Fry the ginger, garlic, and chilies with the curry for about a minute
Cut your chard longways into one inch strips, wash and while still semi-wet throw it in. The extra moisture helps keep it from burning.
Cook until 98% of the moisture has boiled off and the red stalks are tender.

This or Chili Peppers
This or Chili Peppers, our not so secret recipe for sweet pickled Thai chili peppers which are available on our site.
This would fill an average Kerr pickling jar.
1/2 bulb of garlic
4 sprigs of dill
3/4 cup of scallions
Thai chili peppers
1 tbs salt/peper
4 tbs sugar
white vinegar
First peel and smash your garlic, it doesnt matter if it is a little old, i find this is a great way to get rid of that older more pungent garlic.
Cut each sprig of dill into three or four pieces, you dont want them to be too small as they arent meant to be eaten. The dill ads a nice classic pickle bite to this traditional Thai condiment.
Cut the more leafy parts of the scallions at the top off. The whiter more robust parts towards the bottom hold up best during the pickling process where as the greener parts breakdown and loose their shape.
Halve your peppers discarding the extra seeds then add the sugar, salt and pepper.
Finally fill the jar covering the peppers with white vinegar.
